Portfolio site, custom quotes with online deposits, cost pricing and scheduling — everything you need to make a living from cake design, all in one place.
Built for custom orders
Your creations full-page — wedding cakes, tiered cakes, number cakes, layer cakes. Your colors, your logo, your world: the site looks like your work, not a generic template.
Event date, number of servings, flavors, theme, budget, inspiration photo: you choose the questions. No more Instagram back-and-forth — the request comes in complete, and you reply with a proper quote.
Your client accepts the quote and pays the deposit online (secure Stripe payment) — as a percentage or a fixed amount, whichever you prefer. The date is locked in, and you're covered.
Ingredient sheets, working time, overheads: Patissio works out your cost price and the recommended price for every creation. No more selling 15 hours of work at a loss.
Orders, deliveries and workshops in a single calendar. You can see at a glance whether Saturday the 14th is still doable — before saying yes to the weekend's fourth tiered cake.
Publish your courses (beginner, advanced), set the seats and the deposit: sign-ups and payments run themselves.
Instagram isn't enough anymore
Instagram brings you requests — but incomplete ones, spread across ten messages, with no date and no budget, that fizzle out into a silent “I'll get back to you.” And your account could vanish tomorrow, taking your whole portfolio with it.
With Patissio, Instagram goes back to what it does best: showing off your work. The link in your bio points to your own site, where the client fills in your quote form, gets your proposal, and pays the deposit. Every request is complete, dated, and ready to turn into an order.
You start for free with your online portfolio; orders, quotes and deposits come with the Pro plan at €29/month — the price of the first slice of wedding cake sold at the right price.

Several tools target cake designers: Pattyly for request management, MyCakeCalculator for pricing, Cake Designer Club for organisation. Patissio covers all three and adds what keeps the business alive: a real website with a shop, online deposits, workshops and a directory with verified reviews.
We compared everything, honestly and with dates: each tool has its profile, with strengths and limits.

Yes: the customer pays the deposit (30% by default, adjustable) via secure Stripe payment when accepting the quote, and the balance is requested in one click. The money goes straight to your Stripe account.
